Happy New Year!

Hello everybody,
it's the last hours of 2014 (or the first of 2015, depending on where you are) and it's traditionally the time to have a look back.




I got the feeling that I had less time to take care of the Fix in the past months, but looking at the numbers I was shocked to see that I posted over 5000 articles this year! That's almost 20% more than in 2013 and about 14 each day, or one every 102 minutes! Crazy! I also broke the "18.000 posts" mark earlier in December.

August 2014 was the month with the most pageviews so far (165.677!) and looking at the overall statistics I am amazed about how successful my little project is. Thank you all, especially those who are regular commentators!

I think these numbers are testament of what an amazing year this has been. It is a great time to be a wargamer, and although I had close to no time to paint and play, I am looking forward to spending more time on the hobby in 2015. Maybe I get a hobby blog, too. I'll let you know ;)

What will 2015 bring?
There will be a break in late January because I am moving again. Shouldn't be too crazy, but I guess it will take a couple of weeks to get settled. Then I am still tempted to get a facebook account for the Fix to get more reach, but that might lead to a lot more work and this is still a one-man-show. Maybe it's time for a new recruitment attempt, so if you are interested in helping out, let me know.
Beside that, the Tabletop Fix will turn 5 on August 29th, so I guess that calls for a proper celebration!

I'll be back with news tomorrow! And again: Thank you all!

This is the test cut of the next version, which replaces the MDF parts with two layers of card.
This reduces both the weight and the cost. The original was $20 and this version, which is more or less identical, should cost about $12, making it far more affordable.
